Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo chap 7 up!! Enjoy!!

Himeko-KeykaMiyafuji's day: went to a teen party with lots of teenagers and i was really scared of them. and bored. played frisbee wit my little brother to pass the time. i turned my head to fast and got a whiplash . . . WOOPS!!

Dissclaimah: yea . . . Naruto is Kishimoto-sensei's and what not . . .

"Sa-"

Sakura fell to the ground. The bright eyes snared her movement.

"Sasuke--. . ." Sakura muttered.

Just like the Minotaur, it came closer.

"No . . . Sasuke-sama! . . ." Sakura managed to speak. Every time she said 'Sasuke-sama' her voice grew louder until she eventually came screaming his name.

"Sasuke-sama!!!"

A loud slam was heard at the end of the hall. The lights turned on and Sasuke rushed toward Sakura. Sakura felt safer in his presence. She noticed that whatever was in front of her was gone now.

"What's wrong?" Sasuke asked getting straight to the point.

"Ah! Sasuke-sama. I-I don't really know. All I saw we're bright red eyes . . ." Sakura explained.

After hearing what she said, Sasuke faced toward the stairs, as if he knew something was there.

"Stop hiding and come out."

Hiding behind the stairs was the creature Sakura encountered. Its appearance resembled muck like a weasel. It had black skin showing from its belly, chest, feet, and the bottom half of its face. On its arms were knife-like hairs.

"A weasel? I'm gonna die?!!" Sakura panicked. (a/n In Japanese mythology weasels represent bad luck and death)

"Shut up. That's my "comrade"." Sasuke said getting.

" . . . Comrade?"

"I'll explain later. Right now, I have to make sure you've settled down." Sasuke extended his hand toward Sakura.

"Okay . . ." Sakura grabbed his hand as he pulled her up.

"Follow me downstairs."

Sakura did as she was told and followed Sasuke down the stairs. She glanced over at the weasel as it gave her an impartial stare.

Once they were downstairs Sasuke told Sakura to sit down on the couch while he prepared her a glass of water. After a few seconds Sakura was handed her water and she began to drink it slowly.

After a few sips Sakura rested the glass on her lap. "Sasuke-sama, why do you have a weasel in your house?" she asked blankly.

"It's because I'm an Elemental Haze."

"Elemental . . . Haze . . .?"

"Yes. Whenever there is war, Elemental Hazes are reborn with one of the five Elements: Wind, Ice, Fire, Water, and Thunder. I was born with Ice. As an Elemental Haze we are able to use our selected element in battle as an advantage."

"Do . . . you mean like how defeated that Minotaur? I remember that you turned it into ice."

"Correct."

" . . . Sasuke-sama you said five elements. Does that mean there are four more Elemental Hazes with the elements?"

Sasuke nodded.

"What else is there about the Elemental Hazes?"

"We are bound with a god spirit that will tell us what to do whenever necessary and an Occuria: spiritual creatures that aid us during battle."

"What are yours?"

"My god spirit is Ares, and that . . ." Sasuke pointed to the weasel sitting on the stairs. "That is my Occuria."

'Ares? Does he mean the voice that came out of nowhere when he saved me?'

Sasuke looked at the clock that hung from the wall. "It's getting late. You should go back to sleep. Don't worry about the weasel; it won't hurt you."

"Ah, okay. Let me just wash this cup first an-"

"Leave it in the sink. I'll wash it in the morning." Sasuke interrupted.

Sakura was shocked by this. "Okay . . ."

Sakura placed the glass in the sink and left it in like Sasuke said. She went upstairs and noticed that Sasuke was still standing in the living room.

"Sasuke-sama? Aren't you gonna go to sleep?" Sakura asked.

"I'll . . . stay here a bit longer." He answered.

"Okay, well, goodnight."

". . . Yeah."

Sakura continued going up the stairs passing the weasel. Expecting something to happen, Sakura watched it closely as she walked by. It did nothing and stood there as Sakura sighed in relief.

Sakura headed back to her bed and fell asleep.

"Maybe I should keep this . . ." Sakura thought out loud.

Sakura stood in front of her mirror wearing her required clothes. After fixing her robe around her neck she straightened out her long pink hair over it. 'I wonder what the others will say.'

When she was done she grabbed her bag, headed out the house, and walked towards the academy.

When Sakura arrived at the school she saw Ino waiting like she did before.

"Hey Sakura, you're earlier this time. What's with the robe?" Ino asked.

"The robe? Oh, umm . . . Master Shirotsuki wanted me to wear this at school, so . . ."

"Really? It looks good on you."

Sakura smiled. "Thanks."

Lunch

"I-I like your clothes, Sakura." Hinata complimented.

"Thank you, Hinata." Sakura smiled.

"So you really have to wear that to school everyday?" Tenten asked.

"Yea, but I'm not complaining."

"I guess not. Anyway, let's go eat our lunches with the guys; it's a lot more fun with them."

"All right."

Sakura, Ino, Hinata, and Tenten carried their lunches across the lunch area to eat with "the guys". When they arrived Naruto immediately noticed them.

"Sakura-chan! Hinata! Do you wanna eat with us?" Naruto asked.

"Sure." Sakura replied taking a seat at the large table.

"na-Naruto-kun . . ." Hinata blushed.

"Hinata, you can sit next to me. Kiba is stupid to sit with." Naruto insulted.

"Naruto. . . I can hear you." Kiba said.

"I'm saying it so you can hear it!" Naruto argued as he blew a raspberry at Kiba.

Kiba just sighed. He didn't want to stir Naruto's temper any longer. Kiba moved one seat over.

"Hinata, there's a spot for you." Naruto said.

"o-okay. . ." Hinata said meekly as she walked over the seat.

"How come they invite Sakura and Hinata but not us?" Ino scoffed.

"Ah, come on Ino. Just sit down at the table." Sakura said.

"All right. Let's go Tenten." Ino said as they both sat down at the table.

As lunch went on everyone enjoyed the conversations that randomly started.

"Sasuke-sama, last night you were talking about Elemental Hazes. Can you tell me more about them?"

"Elemental Haze? If you wanted to know more about that you should've asked me Sakura-chan." Naruto said.

"Okay then, Naruto. Can you tell me about the Elemental Hazes?"

"Heh. Well I can tell you that just like Sasuke, I'm an Elemental Haze as well."

"You are?"

"Yep. I was born with the wind element. The other Elemental Hazes are Kiba, Neji, and Shikamaru."

"What element do they have?"

"Fire." Kiba said.

"Water." Neji followed.

"Thunder." Shikamaru finished.

"So the five of you are the reborn Elemental Hazes?" Sakura asked.

Kiba answered with a dull. "Yea . . ."

"Then what are your God spirits?" Sakura asked wanting to learn more.

"My god spirit is Dionysus." Naruto said.

"Heh. Mine is Hephaestus, god of fire." Kiba smirked.

"The god spirit I have is Hermes." Shikamaru said lazily.

"Posiedon." Neji said blankly.

"Oh, I see. Can I ask one more?" Sakura asked.

"Sure Sakura-chan."

"What are you're Occurians? Sasuke-sama said his was a weasel."

"I have a fox named Kyuubi." Naruto said.

"A wolf named Shiranui." Kiba said.

"A bird named Sora." Neji said.

"And I have a deer named Shikato." Shikamaru said.

"You have a deer named Shikato, Shikamaru?" Ino asked.

"Yea. He keeps ignoring me." Shikamaru sighed. (a/n the term "Shikato" means "to completely ignore")

"Thank you for telling me. Sorry if you didn't want to answer." Sakura apologized.

"It's no problem . . ." Kiba reassured.

'I think . . . now that I know more about Sasuke-sama and his friends I'll be a special existence to him.'

"Master Shirotsuki."

"Yea, what is it, Sakura?"

"Can you teach me Magic Circles that will heal from now one?" Sakura asked eagerly.

"Sure, why not? Why are you only interested in healing?" Shirotsuki wondered.

"It's because I didn't do well with what you taught me yesterday and I thought that maybe healing might be better." Sakura explained.

"Very well. Grab a stick and follow me outside."

Sakura one of the large wooden sticks leaning on a nearby wall and followed Shirotsuki. Once they were outside, Shirotsuki grabbed a dead flower on the ground and set it down on the vacant dirt. He asked for Sakura's stick and she gave it to him. About 3 yards from the dead plant he began to draw a magic circle on the dirt. He gave the stick back to Sakura.

"You will be learning healing from now on. You see this magic circle I drew?" He asked.

"Yes." Sakura answered.

"I want you to draw the same exact thing with the dead flower in the middle. If done correctly, the flower should come back to life."

"Okay. I'll start right away." Sakura said walking over to the dead plant.

She examined the magic circle Shirotsuki drew noticing every little detail. When she thought she got the whole circle complete in her mind she began to draw on the ground.

After finishing the last line the plant began to glow a bright green. Its limping posture slowly began to lift up making a new bloomed flower.

Shirotsuki was impressed. "Very good, Sakura."

"Thanks."

While Shirotsuki was congradulating Sakura they never noticed the eyes that watched them from behind the bushes. A large monster leaped out revealing itself to Sakura and Shirotsuki. Its hair was as black as ash, had large claws-fangs like daggers-.

"A Hellhound." Shirotsuki said gaurding Sakura from the beast.

Waiting for the right moment it lunged at Sakura and Shirotsuki for attack. Sakura shut her eyes.

Noticing the attack didn't come Sakura reopened her eyes.

"What the . . ."

The Hellhound was suspended in the air with a bunch of bugs surrounding it.

"It's safe." Shino said.

"Ah- Shino! You saved me?" Sakura was suprised of seeing him there.

"My class wasn't far. My bugs noticed it instantly."

"Thank you, Shino." Sakura was relieved.

"I'm afraid this Hellhound isn't the only thing we should be worrying about." Shirotsuki reminded.

"Huh? What do you mean, Master?" Sakura pondered.

"The only way for this Hellhound to come into this world is if-"

"Is if someone inside summoned it." Sakura finished realizing what it meant.
